Sec.  1310.23  Coordinated transportation.



    (a) Each agency providing transportation services must make 

reasonable efforts to coordinate transportation resources with other 

human services agencies in its community in order to control costs and 

to improve the quality and the availability of transportation services.

    (b) At a minimum, the agency must:

    (1) identify the true costs of providing transportation in order to 

knowledgeably compare the costs of providing transportation directly 

versus contracting for the service;

    (2) explore the option of participating in any coordinated public or 

private transportation systems existing in the community; and

    (3) where no coordinated public or private non-profit transportation 

system exists in the community, make every effort to identify other 

human services agencies also providing transportation services and, 

where reasonable, to participate in the establishment of a local 

transportation coordinating council.
